working tool.'
A 100 French Titles No. 4
`Peter France's fine volume ... a remarkable and enduring work of
great scholarly weight.'
Times Higher Education Supplement
`the extended limits of its brief are glossed with admirable and
disarming circumspection by the editor in his introduction ... It
is the work of a distinguished team of contributors and, although
the majority are geographically based in the Anglo-Saxon world,
their familiarity with the French critical spectrum is manifested
both textually and bibliographically ... this is a remarkable and
enduring work of great scholarly weight ... there is at last an
authoritative article to which we can refer colleagues from other
disciplines in search of a summary of post-structuralism.'
Times Higher Education Supplement
`Obviously more up to date, but above all far vaster in
geographical and generic scope than the first Oxford Companion and
as such a very welcome publication...as near indispensable as
possible...recommend it one certainly should, and never without a
murmur of gratitude and congratulations to Peter France'
Forum for Modern Language Studies
`for the modest price of just £30, I can reach out expecting to
find clearly written, expert (130 of them) and up-to-date articles
on what I am looking for'
